Frommer's Review
Folksy and charming, but not quite as good and polished as Hemingway's, Lobster Pot is still an island favorite. It overlooks the water from its second-floor perch at the northern perimeter of George Town, directly beside the road that funnels traffic into the capital from Seven Mile Beach. As its name suggests, it offers lobster prepared in many different ways: Cayman style, broiled in its shell, lobster bisque, and in a mouthwatering salad. Braised jerk chicken, turtle steak, and stuffed Chilean salmon are also on the menu. Most dishes are right on the mark. A house specialty is the "Cayman Trio," consisting of portions of broiled lobster tail, garlic-sautéed shrimp, and grilled fresh local fish, all piled onto the same platter. The place is also known for its succulent steaks. For lunch, you might opt for English-style fish and chips or perhaps lobster quesadillas or lobster-studded pasta. The Lobster Pot's wine bar is a pleasant place for a drink.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
